Heart rate

I'm 50 Had a hysterectomy in Feb and a bladder hamick. After all that my blood pressure shot got real dizzy all the time. My heart felt like it was gonna come out of me my pulse went from 66 to 102 at different times/Went to doctor done alot of test ct on my heart. everything turned out good. They can't explain why i'm still feeling like i do  except its a hormone imbalance.Can't do hardly anything i give out of breath so easy and breath. by heart feels like it's beating so hard i just have to set down and relax. sometimes that does good but then it will start over just setting.The doctor put me on lisnop/hctz  then sense then cause of my heart rate he put me on metoprolol to calm my heart rate down. both pills twice a day. Is this good for my body? I don't know whats going on can anybody give a imput on this.my heart is racing and beating so hard. Thanks

You condition sounds too complicated for me to directly relate, but I can say Metoprolol has been in use for a long time by many people, it is safe.  I do not mean from that it is "good" for your body in any sense other than reducing you heart symptoms...if it does that.

I take high dose Metoprolol (200 mg) a day, and it does have some side effects, especially in high dose...you didn't say way dose you are taking.  One of the side effects that can occure is dizziness, but I read you had that before starting Metoprolol, but it is my guess this medication can add to that problem, depending to some degree on what your blood pressure is.  Metoprolol has two main effects:  lower heart rate and lower blood pressure.

sounds like textbook hormonal imbalance and/or too many chemicals being released to your heart (acetylcholine, adrenaline, etc). You should get a followup because you don't want your heart to enlarge over the next 20 years or so by working so hard but unless there are other symptoms like irregular beats or passing out, your symptoms don't point toward anything troubling.
